Figure 7. Cumulative upfront carbon impact of all nine scenarios through 2050. Carbon impacts scale proportionally with population growth and are expected to grow through 2050. The average annual carbon impact across all projected scenarios is 26.67 MtCO2e/yr, which is less than 4% of the 2022 Texas GHG emissions total of 727.96 MtCO2e[30].
